are two ways not to DO 1t. The first is,
perhaps, that want of care for her per-
sonsl attractions which were large fac
tor IN winning, and now, having won,
should never be emitted. The calico or
lawn dress can be neat and well fitting,
the collar can be clean, rosebud at the
tbroat is cheap adjoining, but these little
things considered will keep love glowing,
and when in the quiet evening she sits
near him, talking to him, his hand,
though hardened by toll, or wrinkled
with age, will involuntsrily caress the
soft hair, though it be streaked with sill
/ yer.
Another fertile cause OF the falling off
is the marked want of interest the house
/ keeping woman evinces in questions of
! the day. Her husband may not be lit
erary man, but there are few Americans
who are not readers Of newspapers, and
a wise woman will SO read these as TO be
| able to listen intelligently and to talk en-
tertainingly on the various topics Of the
hour. There are few systematic house
keepers who cannot SO strange their do
| mestic affairs as to secure an hour during
the day for such work, and it need not
be counted idleness in her to fit herself
for her husbands compsni0nship by ex-
changing reported list of grievances in
| the domain OF children and servants
for sensible talk on current topics.
An additional argument for mental cul-
ture is the capacity it gives women for
laying level the foundation stones of the
domestic superstructure. Kitchen snd
| logic are not SO far apart as they seem,
! for woman Of thorough intellectual Cul-
| ture will bring these trained habits Of
mind TO bear on the duties which she has
elected to assume, and her superior men,
tai ability will assert itself in the control
of the inferior capacities which come IN
der her rule. Civilization need not in
any sense prove bar to hsppi-
ness, if women will cease to re-
gard domestic duties as drudgeSies, and
bring into their homes pride in its per-
feet management, and ennoble all the
daily routine with q love and g sense of
the duties that cluster around well Or
dered home.
All the efforts which mark modern
progress in woman's behalf can be made
to concenter in the home, and work
aesthetic and practical may be usefully
employed in the perpetuation OF those
Joys which entered into the hearts Of the
twain when made one flesh they unitedly
entered into the loving work of home
building.
